Summary
So here’s something funny:
The thing is, despite everything – who they are and who they’re supposed to be, where they are and where they’re going – Higuruma’s been known to look up the legal process for abdication every now and then.
It’s more of a habit than anything at this point. A thought experiment at worst and muscle memory at best, with no actual meaning attached behind it. Higuruma can already recite the procedures by heart anyway, which makes the document on-screen more for show than utility, but there's something….comforting, maybe, about having it open all the same.
Like knowing where to buy a gun, or how to tie a knot in a certain way even if he also knows he’ll never actually pull the trigger, never take the step. Maybe just the knowledge that he could will suffice.

Summary
Indeed, here is one now. Only a mere pup of a thing – a child, as the humans say in their clumsy language. Sukuna lets his feet dangle from the boulder he’s seated on. Peers down at the one audacious enough to speak to him, the first in a millenia.
How to even start? Where to even begin?
“I am what I am required to be,” Sukuna says slowly. “The wind that lifts a goshawk’s wing in flight. The crush of grass under a fox’s foot.” He leans forward now, all the better to see the boy standing so small and brave before him. “I am sharpened claw and bloodstained fang. The beat of a racing heart and the snap of bone between teeth, the first rush of blood and the final breath.”
God of hunger. God of the hunt.
True god of war, before there were humans to ever wage it.
“Oh,” says the child when Sukuna finally falls silent. His eyes are a clear, brilliant green – the colour of horsetails that grow by the water in spring. “I see. But surely you have a name.” And after that, like this is some inane exchange: “Mine is Megumi.”

Summary
Enji finds him starving in the desert.
Chained, like mere common livestock to a stake and his feathers hanging limp, the brilliant red of them gone dull from this endless sea of sand and sun, of a world that only knows how to take and take and take – never to give in return.
Feral child. Orphan of the skies.
And yet, his eyes still shine when he raises his head.
Gold, catching the light.

Summary
“What would make you feel better?”
Hawks has to laugh. Even now, at the end of all things, trust Mera to ask a question like this and mean it. “I don’t think we have time to go into that, unfortunately.”
There it is again, that sadness. Hawks hates it. Hawks wants to crack Mera open and scoop it right out of him, entire fistfuls that leave him hollowed out and ready to be filled with warm things, with sunlight.
All the things that Mera is giving him instead.
“It’ll be quick,” Mera says at length. “Won’t even feel it.”

Summary
Hawks has slipped back onto his chair in the meantime. Pushed the bottle away from himself in the process, but he’s keeping the still-full shot glass close at hand. Drink in case of emergency. “Bullshit,” he says. “Don’t play coy, it’s unbecoming for a man your age.”
“I don’t want to influence your decision.”
“You don’t want to–” Hawks would ruffle his feathers in sheer irritation if he still had them. “Really? We’re going there?”
There’s only carrots and potatoes left in Mera’s container, roughly chopped and swimming in lukewarm curry. Hawks watches Mera move the remaining pieces around – probably looking for something more interesting.
“Endeavor said yes when I asked last week,” he says at length. There, he’s finally found it: the last bit of eggplant hiding almost forgotten in a corner. “Jeanist too, if it matters. Yesterday.”
Hawks downs the shot.
(Or, the one where Hawks tries to Figure It Out after the war and slowly realises that he doesn't have to do it alone. It's a love story, baby!)
